Accessories

The Classical guitar is such a lovely complete musical instrument; all that is required is a change of strings once in a while.

Guitar and music accessories can assist us in our musical journey and in some instances the right accessory is a must have item and sometimes, just sometimes, one just wants to buy something for your hobby because it makes you feel good.

In stocking our accessories we are constantly looking for quality, for example Dynarette produced the original guitar support cushion, which, is now copied by other suppliers selling at a lower price. All well and good until you see that the quality of the Dynarette is superior as is the longevity of the Dynarette over the copies.

The Dynarette is just an example of our approach to quality; we do not have a huge selection of items, however we do stay as up to date as possible. The Sagework guitar rest which I find to be one of the best Guitar Rests I have had the pleasure of using is an example of new items being added which Selina and I have tested before being accepted into our range.

FlexiNail is NOT a temporary "hardener" product and does NOT involve applying fake nails.

Most conditioning oils don't penetrate - they just sit on top of the nail. They absorb into the cuticle - but not into the nail itself.

For a conditioner to be effective - it has to get into the nail which is made of alpha keratin and very different in composition from the skin. Without a penetrating formulation, the ingredients can't penetrate to the nail matrix and you're wasting your time.

FlexiNail Suggested Usage:

Brush on FlexiNail at least once a day to the nail, cuticle, base and underside (extending past the finger) of each nail. Brush on a thin coat as you would apply a nail polish and let it sit for a few minutes if possible. Then, simply massage in any excess solution with your thumb and finger. There is no need to wipe off any excess solution.

FlexiNail is most effective when applied to clean nails that have been dry for at least one hour. If possible, apply FlexiNail before other creams or lotions you may use. When first starting to use FlexiNail or if your hands are frequently in water, apply two or more times daily if possible (or at night and let it completely be absorbed).

FlexiNail Fungus Relief for Toes Usage: Simply brush on FlexiNail Fungus Relief for Toes as you would a nail polish. Apply to each of you nails daily (two to three times a day if possible). It will not harden on the nail, so leave it on for a few minutes if you can and then simply wipe away or rub in any excess. You will experience better results if you apply to nails that have been out of water for an hour - so try not to apply after a bath or shower if possible.

How long does FlexiNail take to work?

The short answer is, it depends how bad your nails are to start.

Initial cuticle results will begin to be noticeable almost right away and within a few short days you will likely notice other changes as well. Full results, however, will NOT happen overnight (be very cautious about any product that claims it can). The best (sustainable) results occur when the nail matrix (the source of new nail growth under the cuticle) absorbs the conditioner complex. This new nail growth then has FlexiNail from the very start. It then takes several months for it to completely grow out to the end of your fingertip (finger nails tend to grow about 0.1 mm per day). Once you get through this initial period of getting that new growth to the end of your finger, your patience will be rewarded with nails that are dramatically improved.

Do I have to wait for it to grow out to see results or does it improve the nail that is already there when I start applications?

It will improve the nail that is already there, but it is far more effective and easier to have the nail under the cuticle form with FlexiNail from the start, than

D'Addario Two-Way Humidification System

D'Addario brings you Boveda's patented technology as part of our instrument care line.

The Two-Way Humidification System (formerly Humidipak) is the only maintenance free, two-way humidity control system for guitar. It automatically maintains the optimal 45-50% relative humidity level within your instrument case, eliminating the guesswork and potential mess related to refilling a humidifier.

Unlike refillable humidifiers, this system provides true “two-way” purified humidity control by adding and removing moisture on demand. No more manual adjustments based on seasonal changes, geographic locations, temperature, or other factors.

The Two-Way Humidification System comes with 3 Humidipaks and a soft mesh pouch that will not harm your instrument's finish. These packets last between 2 and 6 months and should always be kept in a sealed environment like a hard-shell case.

Once the packets become firm, discard and replace using the 3 refills that come in the D'Addario Two-Way Humidification Replacement Pack (PW-HPRP-03).

This all new, reformulated, patented two-way humidification system maintains 45-50% relative humidity which eliminates all maintenance and guesswork.

The bright, multi-colour display allows easy viewing in any environment. It's so small, convenient and accurate you will want one for every acoustic instrument you own.

Some high quality instruments use nitro-cellulose finishes which easily damages when placed in contact with mist polymeric (plastic) materials.

Remove tuner from instrument while storing for extended periods of time.
